HIDING A FILE

                               We usually hide our private file in order to maintain privacy or to prevent it from observation by intruders. That hiding can be neither a file nor a folder. Some tips for hiding are as follows

          • General method for hiding files/folder without using any special software is to
             R/C the file --> Properties --> General tab --> Attrib [Hidden]

          • If you are working with MS office file and for more secured logging in to your more sensitive private information use
             Tool menu --> Options... --> Security tab --> Password to open  

          • For hiding[not displaying] the folder or naming a folder with no name use 
             R/C the folder  --> Rename --> Alt + 0160  & change icon picture to invisible (hold alt key until all numbers are pressed...)

The above mentioned methods are general methods for protecting our sensitive information, there are also a number of third party soft wares  that can be used for protecting our sensitive files ..:-)
